..... yeah I was gonna say, I love OdRoc but you know exactly who I thought this was when I saw the thumbnail. We've seen pleeenty of glowy double helix entries before.

Also, I think the composition would be more effective and less cluttered if you get rid of that watermelon that's shooting something in the lower left; "Galaga" otherwise is a little lost in the fray. Just my 2c.

The tractor beam is the most distinguishing element of Galaga and is fundamental to the design.

The shirt design should not have anything to do with the video game. That's how I read the rules.

For example, Double Dragon was a game about fighting. You could take that name and do a humorous shirt design of two conjoined dragons. (Maybe one is holding a stick with a marshmallow on it and the other one is toasting it with his fire breath. I haven't really put much thought into this.) The name would fit the shirt, and it would have nothing to do with the game.
